Shang Yuluo lowered his head and turned the empty wine glass on the table, with a hint of appreciation, and said, "What a guts! It seems that today's trip is worthwhile, at least let me know that there are still some people who are not afraid of me." She raised her head and stared at Sang Jun, and said slowly: "But unfortunately, you are not from the rivers and lakes." The vicissitudes of rivers and lakes, the lonely heart of the rivers and lakes, not everyone understands. ”

"The vicissitudes of rivers and lakes, the lonely heart of the rivers and lakes. I know. Meng Chuanqing repeated this sentence, only feeling that he had met a lifelong confidant, "We are each other!"

Shang Yuluo smiled and said, "Tacitly!" The two looked at each other and smiled, the smile contained understanding and trust, but it puzzled the onlookers.

Sang Jun was even more unconvinced. Shang Yuluo's simple ten words not only prevaricated his evil deeds, but also bribed Meng Chuanqing. Seeing Meng Chuanqing's appearance of flattering the other party, he sneered: "It seems that you really want to use this female demon to become famous." ”

Meng Chuanqing asked rhetorically, "Sang Jun, you don't believe me?" Sang Jun snorted coldly and acquiesced.

Meng Chuanqing said leisurely: "We have known each other for five or six years, and we don't have any secrets from each other, even you can know a thing or two about what I dream at night, how can you not believe me? From now on, I am no longer the young owner of Wulin Village, Meng Chuanqing, but a kid with no door and no faction - Yang Oath. If I don't rely on Wulinzhuang or the Evil Yin Sect, I can also become famous. This sentence was categorical and shocked everyone's spirits.

Shang Yuluo suddenly said: "Three days later, it will be the ten-year Mo Evil Conference. ”

Meng Chuanqing looked at her, waiting for her to continue, and suddenly said this, there must be a reason for her. "If you can win the championship in one fell swoop, it will definitely be famous. ”

Meng Chuanqing said: "Mo Xie Conference, what kind of meeting is that?" His eyes suddenly lit up, "Could it be related to Mo Xiaoxie?"

"You know her?" Shang Yuluo asked rhetorically. She couldn't see through it, and she didn't understand whether Meng Chuanqing really didn't know anything about the rivers and lakes or deliberately pretended to be stupid.

Meng Chuanqing said: "I have heard that she is the third disciple of Xuanyuan Lingzi, and I only know this. ”

Shang Yuluo shook his head and sighed: "Mo Xiaoxie's glorious life was actually taken by you with a word, I don't know how the ancients would feel if they knew about it?"

Meng Chuanqing smiled bitterly: "No way." I also want to know more, but it's a pity that the other party doesn't want to talk more, as if he has a grudge against Mo Xiaoxie, and he is a little angry when he talks about this, so I don't dare to ask more. ”

"Hatred?" Shang Yuluo's eyes changed, "Could it be someone from the Heavenly Demon Sect?"

Meng Chuanqing was surprised: "I guessed so accurately." ”

Shang Yuluo said: "What's so difficult about this? Mo Xiaoye is worshiped as a goddess, so he is naturally a figure that everyone admires in the martial arts. Almost all the people in the rivers and lakes knew that Mo Xiaoxie's biggest enemy in his life was the Heavenly Demon Sect. More than ninety years ago, she entered the Central Plains and defeated the Heavenly Demon Sect in one fell swoop, making the descendants of the Heavenly Demon Sect hate her to the core. And the ten-year Mo Evil Conference is to commemorate Mo Xiaoxie's deeds of eliminating demons, which is a shame for the people of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and it is inevitable that they will be angry. ”

"The Heavenly Demon Sect still exists now, but it has not harmed the martial arts, why did Mo Xiaoyi make enemies of it back then?"

Meng Chuanqing was puzzled, since the Heavenly Demon Sect had not been completely eradicated by Mo Xiaoxie, it would definitely regroup, but now the Heavenly Demon Sect has always been hidden in the rivers and lakes, and it has not been an evil martial arts, is it Mo Xiaoxie's previous feats that have eliminated their fighting spirit, or have they never been evil?

"Compared to the Heavenly Demon Sect that was like a tiger back then, the current Heavenly Demon Sect is like a gentle kitten. You see, how many people in the rivers and lakes are not afraid of me now, and a demon like me is just a drop in the bucket compared to the Heavenly Demon Sect back then. Shang Yuluo then told Meng Chuanqing about the past of the Mo Evil Goddess. [For details, see Fanwai's "Past Events: Mo Xiao's Evil Ambition in the Rivers and Lakes"]

These deeds have been widely circulated in the rivers and lakes, and Meng Chuanqing has never set foot in the rivers and lakes, so he naturally knows nothing about this matter. At this time, listening to Shang Yuluo talk about this much stimulated his fighting spirit to break into the rivers and lakes even more. Thinking of the Mo Evil Conference three days later, he was even more radiant and asked, "What is the Mo Evil Conference? Martial Arts or Intelligence?"

Shang Yu said: "The Mo Evil Conference is also known as the Treasure Hunting Conference. All the treasures at the conference were contributed free of charge by the wealthy businessmen of Suzhou City. The conference is divided into groups, and each person only relies on his ability, whether it is intelligence or martial arts, as long as he wins the designated treasure, he will win, and all the treasures obtained belong to him. The winner of each group will have a chance to compete for the final treasure. ”

Meng Chuanqing said: "What is the final treasure?"

"The final treasure is the last treasure, and the most valuable treasure. When each conference is approaching, the wealthy merchants of Suzhou City will secretly meet in one place, display the most valuable treasure in their hands, and choose a treasure as the final treasure through voting. The final treasure is the most top-secret treasure, except for the people who participated in the vote, no one knows what it is, and it will only be revealed at the last minute of the conference, and the answer will be revealed to the final winner of the conference. ”

Meng Chuanqing stroked his chin and pondered, "If I want to attend the conference, I have to figure out what the final treasure is first. Wouldn't it be a disappointment if all I had worked so hard for for a long time was just an inconspicuous treasure?"

Shang Yuluo laughed and said, "How could it be? The final treasures of the previous Mo Evil Conferences were all priceless, and some were even priceless. Let's take the last two sessions as an example! Twenty years ago, Zhongbao was a team that left people. This Yuxiao, known as the king of Xiaozhong, was the belongings of Dong Yongsheng, the son of Allure, more than fifty years ago. This Xiao once played the most beautiful song "Never Let Go" in his hands, and it is still sung by people in the rivers and lakes. Back then, it was the unappointed martial arts alliance master Bie Yingtian who won this treasure, and this Xiao later became a token of his courtship to Wen Zongxuan, which was widely circulated in the rivers and lakes.

Ten years ago, the final treasure was a statue of the goddess of Mo evil, which was the legacy of Ru Qiusang, the world's first Danqing holy hand. The people on the painting are lifelike, like a real person coming to the world, and it is the most valuable treasure of the previous Mo Evil Conference. The winner of this treasure was a girl in white who was only seventeen years old and did not know her identity. The girl is dressed in white, without makeup, cold and noble, and her strange skills can frustrate the masses without effort, which is unbelievable. Some people say that she is the goddess of Mo Evil who re-came to the world in order to get back her portrait and prevent it from being defiled by the world. However, since then, the girl has never appeared in the rivers and lakes, and her identity has become a mystery several times. ”

"Could it be her?" Meng Chuanqing muttered. He thought of the woman in white who rescued him at sea, who was also light and wearless, cold and noble. Although her actual age can't be seen from her appearance, who else will have such an image and temperament and weird skills?

"Who?" Shang Yuluo, who had a very good ear, heard him mutter.

"Nothing, just thinking of my sister, a lot like her. Meng Chuanqing didn't want to tell anyone about the woman in white he met at sea. In fact, he didn't lie, Meng Chuanxin did look a little like the woman in white.

"If you want to participate, don't sign up quickly, there will be no places if you are late. Shang Yuluo reminded him.

Meng Chuanqing jumped up and said: "Success or failure is here, and you can't miss the opportunity." With that, he hurried downstairs. Yan Shangci couldn't catch up with him, so he had to wait upstairs.

About a pillar of incense passed, Meng Chuanqing returned alone. "It's dangerous, last spot. Meng Chuanqing sat down leisurely, took the water that Yan Shangci poured for him and drank it, but found that Shang Yuluo's expression was wrong, and he was about to ask, but Shang Yuluo suddenly said: "Everyone, talk slowly, I still have something to do, take the first step." Then she grabbed the long sword on the table and jumped out of the window with Jiang Moning.

"Hey... How did you go?" When Meng Chuanqing ran to the window, the two were gone. Looking out the window, his heart was filled with hope. At this time, his stomach "growled", and he remembered that the meal he ordered a few hours ago had not yet been eaten, so he had to call a table again, and several people ate a big meal happily.

After eating, a few people saw that it was still early, so they discussed going to visit Suzhou City together. As soon as he walked downstairs, he was stopped by the young showman at the gate.

"A few people need to settle the money for the meal just now before they can leave the inn. The young showman squinted at them with a smirk.

"How much?" asked Sang Youyou.

"Five hundred taels. ”

"Five hundred taels?" Sang Jun exclaimed, "Why don't you grab it?" The meals they ordered were only two hundred taels at most, and the other party actually asked for a sky-high price.

"We do legitimate business. The young showman laughed.

Meng Chuanqing said suddenly, "During the Mo Evil Conference, aren't all the guests' meals free?" He remembered that Shang Yuluo had told him that this inn was only open at a sky-high price during normal times.

"That's true. But first-time visitors to the inn do not have this treatment. The young Xiushi said slowly: "Your name is Yang Oath, I have checked the list of guests in the past, and there is no name on you, which means that you are here for the first time." So, you can't enjoy that treatment. ”

Meng Chuanqing was speechless. This is clearly a black martial arts shop, and it is so black and arrogant. He had no choice but to admit it and look at Sang Youwu.

Sang You said worriedly: "Second cousin, don't worry, I can afford no matter how high the price he asks." Then she motioned for Sang Joon to pay.

Sang Jun took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, still gave them to the young Xiushi, and said, "Five hundred taels, don't count them." ”

The young Xiushi directly put the silver ticket into his sleeve and said, "If you want to stay, it's best to prepare enough silver tickets, one hundred taels per person per night." ”

"Mistakenly, accommodation is per room, not per person. Sang Jun said.

The young Xiushi shook his head and said: "This is the rule of the Donghua Inn, and the accommodation fee is calculated according to the number of people, one hundred taels per person." If a pregnant woman comes, she has to pay for the child in her womb, a total of two hundred taels. ”

This time, even Sang Youwu was stunned, and there was still such a business. She can also hold up a piece of the sky in the business world, turning her hands into clouds and covering her hands into rain, which can be described as a leader in this industry. She has dealt with all kinds of businessmen, but she has never seen such a black and honest businessman. This is clearly naked blackmail.

One hundred taels for one person, five hundred taels for five people, and they won't leave until the Mo Evil Conference is over, then they will have to stay for four nights, which adds up to two thousand taels. If you count their food expenses for the past few days, it will cost at least more than 3,000. Although this is a small amount for her, but for those ordinary people, it is an inexhaustible savings that cannot be spent in a lifetime! She finally understood why Long Gongzi's sentence of "free entertainment for three days" can buy many martial arts people, this is a curse!

Meng Chuanqing was stunned, looked at Sang Youwu and said, "Youyou... I think... Let's switch to another one..."

"Don't change!" Sang You said worriedly, "We'll live here." ”

Sang Jun was a little embarrassed: "Miss, let's change it! I don't have so many silver tickets on me." ”

Yan Shangci also persuaded at this time: "Why bother to vomit, as long as you don't leave Suzhou City, it's the same wherever you live." ”

With this persuasion, Sang Youwu became even more worried, "No! I want to live here." ”

Meng Chuanqing wanted to persuade him again, but Sang Youwu suddenly smiled and said: "I am a businessman, and I will never allow myself to do a loss-making business." Eat a trench and grow a wisdom, today I admit it, but before leaving Suzhou City, I must bring back the principal and interest. ”

The young showman looked at her with a suspicious gaze, "Are you a businessman?"

Sang Youwu ignored him and looked at Sang Jun: "How many silver tickets are there?" ”

"I only brought three thousand taels with me when I came out. ”

"There's not much left. Let's go, let's go get the money. ”

"There is no business for us in Suzhou. Sang Jun reminded.

Sang You was stunned, and then remembered that her master did not allow her to do business in Suzhou City. "Then you go out of the city to get it, and you must come back before dark. ”

After Sang Jun went out of the city, Sang Youwu had a relationship with Meng, Yan Shangci, and Mai and the four of them visited Suzhou City.

Meng Chuanqing bought a precious piece of jewelry for each of his three daughters in a jewelry store called "Jubao Zhai". What he gave to Yan Shangci was a pair of crystal clear jade bracelets, and in order to show his love for the house and Wu, he gave wheat a hosta, which moved the wheat.

The gift Sang Youwei received was a yellow ribbon, which Meng Chuanqing tied on her head with her own hands, and then took out a fist-sized blue bead from her arms and gave it to her. Meng Chuanqing called it a lucky pearl, saying that it could bring good luck to Sang Youwei.

Sang Youwu didn't know when Meng Chuanqing bought it, he said that he would let him take good care of it, except for a few people present who did not allow others to know about it, although he felt strange, he agreed. Only Yan Shangci's expression changed slightly when he saw the beads. That is clearly the demon spirit bead that Nan Wushi gave her, and the teaser actually handed over this hot potato to Youyou, isn't he afraid that it will cause you to kill Youyou?

As if he knew what Yan Shangci was thinking, Meng Chuanqing looked at her and said, "Don't worry, I'm measured." With his knowledge of the young sorrow, he knew that she would definitely regard it as the most precious gift of her life, and then sealed it and locked it in a cupboard, and she would not take it out unless she missed herself. Moreover, she is a businessman, so it is not surprising that she has rare treasures around her, so that it will not attract too many people's attention, but it will be more beneficial to hide the Demon Spirit Orb. As long as you find Nan Wushi and return the beads to her, everything will be fine.

After a few people came out of the jewelry store, they went straight to the Moye Tower.
